It's a pleasure to write a good review for Carrie and the folks at Everything Estates. I've…read moreattended her sales for years, but I also recently referred her to one of my sellers (I'm a Realtor) to liquidate an estate on Santa Fe's historic eastside. Carrie was kind and careful in a difficult heir situation and her staff handled the sale in a tight neighborhood extremely well. There was a tiny snafu after the sale was completed and Carrie was on it and took care of things without having to be prompted. I'm so glad I referred her to my clients, and I'll certainly do it again when the opportunity arises.

Our bad for driving up from Rio Rancho, but we arrived at 4:45 PM to find that the staff had already closed down for the day before the stated 5PM hour. When we asked about the hours and learned about our mistake the blonde woman from the company laughed at us With that we left (still not 5PM) and left without anyone from the company saying a word. We are very disappointed and will not go to any estate sale put on by this company. They must have a huge supply of paying customers to close early and sneer at us.

My mom is an interior decorator, and has been doing business in Santa Fe for upwards of twenty…read moreyears. She has been in and out of here many times, both purchasing and consigning pieces. Recently she had to go into an assisted living facility due to early onset dementia. Now as an interior designer, she of course had a lot of nice things herself, including a huge collection of green pottery which wasn't necessarily cheap, as she had sourced it from Bolivia, Peru, and various places in Europe. There were about 18 to 20 pieces of it. Because she had done business with the owner so frequently, she said we should let him consign the pottery. Now my three sisters and I live in different states, none of which include New Mexico. At the time of this occurring at Stephen's, I was out of the state, but my sisters said they explained that my mom was moved into an assisted living facility with early onset dementia starting to set in, and so she wanted to consign these good with him. He told them he was sorry to hear that, and he happily agreed to take the pieces and anything else we wanted to give him as he knew she had nice taste. He also said he would help price them out as my sisters we not sure what they were worth. (I on the other hand am aware of what they are worth). They also discussed how to get some other things to him as they were all going to have to leave town in a few days. Here's where it gets interesting. A week after my sisters left town, Stephen called one of them and told her that they didn't have room for the pottery, and it was taking up too much space. He said that he would be willing to give us $300 for the pottery, or we needed to come get it within the next week. He said that if we didn't it would belong to him by default because he was telling us he couldn't consign it any longer. So this happens exactly a week after he agreed to take it into his shop. A week after my sisters all left town. He did this to my mom, who he's known and done business with for years, who now knows has dementia. And this pottery is literally worth thousands of dollars. Like well above 10K. I was so pissed that I told my sister to tell him that it wasn't a problem, we would pick it up. I then left Florence, Arizona and drove 8 hours up to Santa Fe to be there two days later when he opened. I had my wife and a friend of hers with me, and boy was he shocked when we started pulling all of the pieces out of this store. I already had a storage unit rented for all the stuff I had cleared out of my parents house when we moved them into assisted living, and I don't think he expected us to make a sudden trip out there to take it out of his store rather than just letting him buy it off of us for peanuts. I guarantee if we sold it to him those green clay pots would have shiny new price tags the very next day. When we showed up at his store he quickly doubled his offer to $600 but then made himself scarce when I told him to pound sand. He tried to take advantage of every angle of the situation. It really just upsets me to think that here is a guy who my mom considered a friend, or at least an honest person she used to do business with, and he tried to take advantage of her like that. The next time I am in Santa Fe I'll have to take a look in some of the other consignment shops in town, because I'm sure I'll find his conscience in one of them.
